Missing information on HelpViewer in Mac OS X

I had a problem with a Canon help file being assigned to the wrong application to open it. I found the answer from Canon but only posted the fact that I had the answer. I forgot to include useful information for others on the solution. The original question is archived so I am posting the information here.
If you need to restore the default program to open a help file (such as those used for Canon printers), the program needed is found at /System/Library/CoreServices/HelpViewer.app
I spent useless hours trying to find it so I'm hoping I may help others with this post.

The majority of Apple's basic applications reside in /CoreServices/. You'll find others like AddPrinter.app, Archive Utility.app, Certificate Assistant.app, Directory Utility.app, Dock.app, and Installer.app,

Time machine only copies User Info and Users (Applications, Library, and System are missing) from my quad core Mac Pro. 45 Gb of 162 Gb are missing. Any one having success with time machine copying all folders using Mavericks?
What do I need to do differently?

The late, great Pondini was investigating that issue before he passed away.

I think there might be information there on how to reset Time Machine to do a full backup. I think you basically have to reset it and start over.

"Missing information in order to join" error for Shared Calendars

I have shared Calendars before with various people and they all work flawlessly. Unforunately, one person who I am trying to share a calendar with got a "Missing information in order to join" error message when she tries to join. I have no idea why this is happening. She has a hotmail email address. Any idea/suggestions as to why this could be happening?
I am using a 4S, she is using a 4.

Yup, I got the same thing. Further info: I set up the shared list on my mac, then sent the list to my wife who tried to open it on her iPhone 5 and got redirected to the iCloud sign in page and then got the above error. We then tried it via her hotmail account and signing into iCloud on a web browser on her computer. Same error.
Edit: Further further info: the ability to share a Reminder list is new in 10.8.2. It can't be done via the iCloud web interface or the iPhone interface.
Anybody know how to solve this?

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. 1st gen iPad.

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. The message is now fixed & I cannot get rid of it. Ironically, when I found this forum I was able to set up an apple Id. Please advise how to get rid of the pop-up box. Thanks!

I'm having this same problem as well and cannot advance--very irritating. All of the information is filled out correctly and I've editted my AppleID information online separately as well to get around this issue, but no luck...

Itunes won't fill in missing information automatically

Hi
Until now, my itunes always filled in missing information automatically, as i type in the first letters of the genre, the album or the artist... Now it suddenly stopped. It still works when i go on "go info", as when i select several songs i want to edit genre of, but when i do it directly on the playlist it won't work anymore.
Does anyone have the same problem? and does someone know what to do about it/how to change it back?
I didn't change any settings, and i already checked in preferences but nothing like autofill (un-)checking.
All i know is that it started a few days ago, i guess when i updated my itunes. well it updated kinda automatically i just clicked yes. But i mean i didn't do anything wrong, this thing is updating every two months!
This not-filling-in thing is really annoying because well, guess i don't need to explain why...
So when you know how to change it back please tell me!!
Thanks for any help!!

It sounds like you need to restore your ipod using the latest ipod software. Once you restore the ipod sync it back with itunes and it will allow you to set it up again. Use article 60983(click on support and enter that number in the search menu) when restoring the ipod, it will guide you through the process.

Imported Playlist Missing Information

Hi,
So in follow up to my exporting question earlier, I am importing a playlist into Itunes. When I import my playlist - there is missing information. For example it'll be missing the information in the comments field or information in the genre field.
Would anyone happen to know why this would be happening? I looked at the imported .txt file in excel and I can see that all the information is there. Why would itunes be ignoring just a select few feilds?
Thanks,
R_N

Reports 10g Missing information during file conversion

I have a large report that includes several graphs that keeps giving me an error during conversion that says the report is missing information and cannot create the file. I have never seen this before this report. It is actually giving me the message REP-1067 Some information is missing in the report. It just seems to happen when I add another graph. There is no information on REP-1067 in searching in the forums which does not give me a lot of hope.. Anyone have any ideas where to look. Report Builder 10g, Database 10g.
There are already several graphs in the report, so I don't believe it is a graphing issue.

HT1386 After I synced, all my contacts were missing information or actually missing, how do I correct this?

Could someone please tell me how to get my contact list back to the original. When I synced it, it got all jumbled and I have missing contacts, missing information and it's just a mess. I think the fact that I joined Cloud may have something to do with it. I'd be perfectly happy to get out of that also. Please help.
Thanks.

No, you can't downgrade iOS. You should be able to restore the address book on your computer from your backup, though. Windows address book probably got wiped on the first sync after the upgrade completed. It sounds like the iPhone may have been disconnected before the entire restore cycle was complete if the contact records in Windows Address book got munged.

Do i need to backup my information before installation of Mac os x lion? I know I should always back up, but what i'm asking is will my information be there, or is it a totally clean install? Will my information have to be transfered?

Do i need to backup my information before installation of Mac os x lion? I know I should always back up, but what i'm asking is will my information be there, or is it a totally clean install? Will my information have to be transfered?

When I installed Lion all of my files were intact and where I left them, and I did not back up my Mac, however having seen some of the problems some people are coming across when installing Lion I would recommend backing up before you install (just to be on the safe side).
Hope this helps!

I suggest you talk to your spouse: honest communication is the only approach when this kind of question bothers your mind. There's no way that anyone here can tell you anything useful.

Missing Information Spaces in "HOME" tab

Hy,
i have anI have under Manage Spaces 6 Explorer Views. All are "GREEN" and indexed successful.
One of them is not reachable in the "HOME" screen. Only 5 are visbile.
Even a search does not help.
The only workaround i have, is to copy the folder in the URL.
Folder were all published spaces are located:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\Data\Polestar\index\SMNOTN400P.ExplorerExplorationServer\Published\ExplorationIndexes
The URL looks like that.
<http://BOSERVER>:8080/explorer/index.jsp?application=portal&documentId=e39722b9-b5ed-4cc9-b63d-ab5b68000ba6
e39722b9-b5ed-4cc9-b63d-ab5b68000ba6 = folder name of missing index in home screen.
When i open that link the explorer opens the missing information space.
Has anybody an idea?
BR
Christoph

Hi Chris,
Can you clear the index directory and re index the information space?

Missing information in my photos

I imported some photos I recently shot and this is how a lot of them look. The thumbnails look fine but when I preview them they look similar to this. When I open the image in photoshop it says that the document may be damaged or truncated.
